Notice for Customers in the U.S.A. and Canada
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Industry of Canada (IC)
Declaration of Conformity
This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules and Industry Canada licenceexempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)
this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of this
device.
FCC/IC RF Exposure Statement
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are
associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that
these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power wireless devices
emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being
used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue),
exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known
adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any
biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might
occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research.

Using a Tripod
• We recommend using a tripod to stabilize the camera when shooting in the following situations:
- When shooting in dim lighting or when the flash mode (A45) is set to W (Off).
- When using the telephoto setting.
• Set Vibration reduction in the setup menu (A74) to Off when using a tripod to stabilize the
camera during shooting.
Using the Zoom
Zoom out
Zoom in
• A zoom indicator is displayed at the top of the
monitor when the zoom control is rotated.
Optical Digital
• Digital zoom, which allows you to magnify the
zoom
zoom
subject up to approximately 4× beyond the
maximum magnification of the optical zoom, can
be activated by rotating and holding the zoom control to g when the camera is
zoomed in to the maximum optical zoom position.
C
Basic Steps for Shooting and Playback
Use the zoom control to activate optical zoom.
• To zoom in closer to the subject, rotate the zoom
control to g (telephoto).
• To zoom out and view a larger area, rotate the zoom
control to f (wide-angle).
When you turn the camera on, the zoom moves to
the maximum wide-angle position.
Digital Zoom and Interpolation
While using digital zoom, the image quality decreases due
to interpolation when the zoom is increased beyond the V
position. Since the position of V moves to the right as the
size of an image decreases, selecting a smaller image size in
the image mode setting (A53) allows you to zoom in
further without decreasing the image quality due to
interpolation.
Small image size

Step 4 Focus and Shoot
1
Press the shutter-release button halfway
(i.e., press the button slightly until you
feel resistance).
• When you press the shutter-release button
halfway, the camera sets the focus and exposure
(shutter speed and aperture value). Focus and
exposure remain locked while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.
Basic Steps for Shooting and Playback
• Once focus is acquired, the focus area glows
green. See “Focus Area” (A57) for more
information.
• When digital zoom is used, the focus area is
not displayed and the camera focuses at the
center of the frame. Once focus is acquired,
1 / 250 F3.2
the focus indicator (A6) glows green.
Focus area
• If the focus area or the focus indicator flashes
red when the shutter-release button is
pressed halfway, the camera is unable to focus. Modify the composition and press the
shutter-release button halfway again.
2
Press the shutter-release button all the way
(i.e., press the button the rest of the way
down).
• The shutter is released and the image will be recorded
to the memory card or internal memory.
• If you press the shutter-release button with too much force, the camera may shake,
causing images to be blurred. Press the button gently.

Subjects Not Suitable for Autofocus
C
Touch Shooting
The active focus area can be changed when using touch shooting. At the default setting, the shutter
can be released by simply tapping a subject in the monitor (A53) without pressing the shutterrelease button.
C
Basic Steps for Shooting and Playback
Autofocus may not perform as expected in the following situations. In some rare cases, the subject
may not be in focus despite the fact that the focus area or the focus indicator glows green.
• Subject is very dark
• Objects of sharply differing brightness are included in the scene (e.g. the sun behind the subject
makes that subject appear very dark)
• No contrast between the subject and surroundings (e.g. a portrait subject wearing a white shirt is
standing in front of a white wall)
• Several objects are at different distances from the camera (e.g. the subject is inside a cage)
• Regular geometric patterns (e.g. window blind or windows on a skyscraper)
• Subject is moving rapidly
In the situations noted above, try pressing the shutter-release button halfway to refocus several
times, or try focusing on another subject that is at the same distance from the camera as the
intended subject (A60).
AF-assist Illuminator and Flash
If the subject is poorly lit, the AF-assist illuminator (A75) may light when the shutter-release button
is pressed halfway, or the flash (A44) may fire when the shutter-release button is pressed all the
way down.
C
To Make Sure You Do Not Miss a Shot
If you are concerned that you might miss a shot, press the shutter-release button all the way without
first pressing it halfway.
C
Motion Detection
In G (easy auto) mode or A (auto) mode, when the camera detects subject movement or camera
shake, ISO sensitivity and shutter speed are increased to reduce blurring. In this case, the shutter
speed indicator turns green.

Red-eye Reduction
This camera uses advanced red-eye reduction (“In-Camera Red-Eye Fix”). To reduce red-eye, a series
of low-intensity pre-flashes fire before the main flash. In addition, if the camera detects red-eye when
an image is taken, the affected area is processed to reduce red-eye before the image is saved. Note
the following when shooting:
• Due to the pre-flashes, there is a longer than usual interval between the time the shutter-release
button is pressed and the time the shutter is released.
• More time than usual is required to record images.
• Red-eye reduction may not produce the desired results in some situations.
• In extremely rare instances, areas not subject to red-eye may be affected by red-eye reduction
processing; in these cases, choose another flash mode and try again.

Notes About Digital Zoom
• Digital zoom is not available with some shooting modes.
• The camera focuses on the subject at the center of the frame when digital zoom is in effect.
Focusing on Subjects
The focus area varies depending on the shooting mode.
• When shooting a subject that is not suitable for autofocus (A25), try pressing
the shutter-release button halfway several times, or try the techniques
described in “Shooting Subjects Not Suitable for Autofocus” (A60).
Focus Area
In G (easy auto) mode or A (auto) mode, the camera performs the focus
operations described below when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.
• When a face is detected, it is framed by the
double border indicating the active focus
area. When the subject is in focus, the
double border turns green.
1 / 250 F3.2
• When no face is detected, the camera
automatically selects one (or more) of the 9
focus areas containing the subject closest to
the camera. When the subject is in focus, the
focus areas that are in focus glow green (up
to nine areas). If a shooting mode icon other
1 / 250 F3.2
than G or i is displayed in G (easy auto)
mode, the camera focuses on the subject at the center of the frame (A6).
• Tap the monitor to select the focus area. See “q/s/r Touch shooting”

Notes About the Face Detection Function
• The camera may be unable to detect faces in the following situations:
- When faces are partially hidden by sunglasses or other obstructions
- When faces take up too much or too little of the frame
• When the frame includes more than one face, the faces detected by the camera and the face on
which the camera focuses depend on a variety of factors, including the direction in which the
faces are looking.
• When shooting a subject that is not suitable for autofocus (A25), the camera may not be able to
focus properly on the subject despite the fact that the double border glows green. Should this
occur, refocus on another subject positioned at the same distance from the camera as the actual
portrait subject (A60).

Viewing Images That Were Taken Using Face Detection
When playing back images that include a face detected during shooting, the images are
automatically rotated depending on the orientation of the face detected (except images captured in

Recording Movies
• Memory cards with an SD Speed Class rating of 6 or faster are recommended when recording
movies (F19). Movie recording may stop unexpectedly when memory cards with a lower Speed
Class ratings are used.
• The camera focuses when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, and the focus remains
locked while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.
• Digital zoom degrades image quality. When recording movies, the digital zoom can magnify the
image up to 4× the maximum optical zoom ratio.
• In some cases, movie recordings may capture the sounds of the camera itself, such as those made
by the shutter-release button, the zoom control, the movement of the lens during autofocus,
vibration reduction, or aperture control when the brightness changes.
• The following phenomena may be seen in the monitor while recording movies. These
phenomena are saved in the recorded movies.
- Banding may occur in images under fluorescent, mercury-vapor, or sodium-vapor lighting.
- Subjects that move quickly from one side of the frame to the other, such as a moving train or car,
may appear skewed.
- The entire movie image may be skewed when the camera is panned.
- Lighting or other bright areas may leave residual images when the camera is moved.
• When recording or playing back movies, colored stripes (interference patterns or moiré) may
appear on subjects that have a regular, repeating grid, such as pattern of weave in clothing or
windows in a building, depending on the shooting distance or zoom ratio. This phenomenon
occurs when the subject’s pattern interferes with the camera sensor grid, and it does not indicate
a malfunction.

focus properly on the subject. Follow the procedure below if you are trying to shoot this type of
subject for movies.
1. Set Autofocus mode in the movie menu to A Single AF (default setting) before starting

Raising the ISO sensitivity reduces the amount of light needed to make an
exposure, allowing images to be taken in low light conditions. A higher sensitivity
also allows for faster shutter speeds, reducing blur caused by subject movement
or camera shake.
• High ISO sensitivity settings are useful when taking images in dim lighting,
when shooting without a flash, or when using the telephoto setting, but they
may also produce “noise” (randomly spaced, brightly colored pixels) in the dark
areas of images.
Option
Description
Sensitivity is ISO 125 when there is sufficient lighting; the
s Auto (default setting) camera compensates by raising sensitivity to a maximum of
ISO 1600 when lighting is poor.
Fixed range auto
125, 200, 400, 800, 1600,
3200
Limit the camera’s automatically adjusted ISO sensitivity range
to between ISO 125 and ISO 400. By limiting the ISO sensitivity
to a maximum of 400, this option moderates the amount of
“grain” that appears in images.
Sensitivity is locked at the specified value.

Notes About ISO Sensitivity
• This setting may not be available with some functions. See “Functions That Cannot Be Used

balance are fixed at the values determined with the first image in each series.
• It may take some time to save the images after shooting. The amount of time it takes to finish
saving the images depends on the number of images, image mode, the write speed of the
memory card, etc.
• When ISO sensitivity increases, noise may appear in images taken.
• The frame rate with continuous shooting may vary depending on the current image mode
setting, the memory card used, or shooting conditions.
• When Continuous H: 120 fps, Continuous H: 60 fps or Multi-shot 16 is selected, banding or
variance in brightness or hue may occur in images that were taken under lighting that flickers at
high speeds, such as fluorescent, mercury-vapor, or sodium-vapor lighting.
• This setting may not be available with some functions. See “Functions That Cannot Be Used

w White Balance (Adjusting Hue)
Enter the A (auto) mode shooting screen M Press the d button M w White balance
The color of light reflected from an object varies with the color of the light source.
The human brain is able to adapt to changes in the color of the light source, with
the result that white objects appear white whether seen in the shade, direct
sunlight, or under incandescent lighting. Digital cameras can mimic this
adjustment by processing images according to the color of the light source. This is
known as “white balance.” For natural coloration, choose a white balance setting
that matches the light source before shooting. Although the default setting, Auto
can be used under most types of lighting, the white balance setting suited to a
particular light source can be specified manually to achieve more accurate results.

Notes About Vibration Reduction
• Vibration reduction may take a few seconds to activate after the power is turned on, or the camera
enters shooting mode from playback mode. Wait until the image of the monitor stabilizes before
shooting.
• Due to characteristics of the vibration reduction function, images displayed in the camera’s
monitor immediately after shooting may be displayed blurry.
• Vibration reduction may be unable to completely eliminate the effects of camera shake in some
situations.
• Image processing with electronic vibration reduction may not perform as expected with very
slight or extreme camera shake, even when On (hybrid) is selected.
• Image processing with electronic vibration reduction is not enabled at fast or extremely slow
shutter speeds, even when On (hybrid) is selected.
• When On (hybrid) is selected and electronic vibration reduction is activated, the shutter is
automatically released twice when an image is taken to allow for image processing. Therefore, the
time required to record images increases. Shutter sound (E60) can be heard only when the
shutter is released the first time and a single image will be recorded.

Notes About GPS
Reference Section
• When positioning for the first time, when positioning was unable to be performed for about
2 hours, or after the battery was changed, it takes a few minutes to obtain the position
information. After switching to the shooting application from another application such as the
playback application, it takes a few seconds to obtain the position information.
• Positions of the GPS satellites change constantly. You may not be able to determine the position
or it may take some time depending on your location and the time. To use the GPS feature, use the
camera in an open-air area with few obstacles in the sky. Signal receiving will be smoother if the
GPS antenna (A1) is facing the sky.
• If the camera needs to be turned off inside an airplane or hospital, set Use GPS satellites in
Location & security in the Android™ platform setting menu (A91) to off.
• The following locations which block or reflect signals may result in failed or inaccurate positioning.
- Inside buildings or underground
- Between high-rise buildings
- Under overpasses
- Inside tunnels
- Near high-voltage electrical power lines
- Between clusters of trees
- Underwater
• Using a mobile phone of 1.5 GHz band near this camera may disrupt positioning.
• When carrying this camera around while positioning, do not place it in a metal bag. Positioning
cannot be performed if the camera is covered with metal materials.
• When there is a significant difference in the signals from the GPS satellite, there could be a
deviation of up to several hundred meters.
• Be aware of your surroundings when positioning.
• The shooting date and time that is displayed when playing back images is determined by the
camera’s internal clock at the time of shooting. The camera does not display the time at which
position information was obtained for an image.
• Position information will be recorded on the first frame of images shot using continuous shooting
mode.
• The Geodetic system for this camera’s GPS function uses the WGS 84 (World Geodetic System
1984).
B
Notes About Synchronize
• The Synchronize function adjusts the date and time based on the time zone set in Date & time
in the Android™ platform setting menu (A91). Check the time zone before using Synchronize.
• The date and time set by the Synchronize function is not as accurate as that of radio clocks. If the
time set by Synchronize is not accurate, set the time in Date & time in the Android™ platform
setting menu (A91).

(A8).
• Position information recorded on a image can be checked on a map with ViewNX 2 after
transferring the image to a computer (A65).
• The actual place of shooting may differ from the GPS information recorded on the image files due
to the accuracy of the position information obtained and a difference in the Geodetic system
used.

To ensure continued enjoyment of this Nikon product, observe the precautions
described below in addition to the warnings in “For Your Safety” (Avi–viii) when
using or storing the device.
The Camera
B
Keep Dry
The device will be damaged if immersed in water or subjected to high humidity.
B
Do Not Drop
The product may malfunction if subjected to strong shock or vibration.
B
Handle the Lens and All Moving Parts with Care
Do not apply force to the lens, lens cover, monitor, memory card slot or battery-chamber. These
parts are easily damaged. Applying force to the lens cover could result in camera malfunction or
damage to the lens. Should the monitor break, care should be taken to avoid injury caused by
broken glass.
B
Do Not Point the Lens at Strong Light Sources for Extended Periods
Avoid pointing the lens at the sun or other strong light sources for extended periods when using or
storing the camera. Intense light may cause deterioration of the image sensor, producing a white
blur effect in photographs.
B
Keep Away from Strong Magnetic Fields
Do not use or store this device in the vicinity of equipment that generates strong electromagnetic
radiation or magnetic fields. Strong static charge or the magnetic fields produced by equipment
such as radio transmitters could interfere with the monitor, damage data saved on the memory card,
or affect the product’s internal circuitry.

Notes About the Monitor
• Monitors and electronic viewfinders are constructed with extremely high precision; at least 99.99%
of pixels are effective, with no more than 0.01% being missing or defective. Hence while these
displays may contain pixels that are always lit (white, red, blue, or green) or always off (black), this is
not a malfunction and has no effect on images recorded with the device.
• Due to the general characteristics of OLED monitors, prolonged or repeated display of the same
screen or image may result in screen burn. Screen burn can be recognized by decreased
brightness in portions of the monitor or mottled display. In some cases, screen burn may become
permanent. However, images are in no way affected by screen burn.
To prevent screen burn, do not set monitor brightness higher than necessary and do not display
the same screen or image for an extended period of time.
• Images in the monitor may be difficult to see under bright lighting.

Nikon-authorized service representative.
The Battery
F3
Technical Notes and Index
Be sure to read and follow the warnings in “For Your Safety” (Avi–viii) before use.
• Check the battery level before using the camera, and replace or charge the
battery if necessary. Do not continue charging once the battery is fully charged
as this will result in reduced battery performance. Whenever possible, carry a
fully charged spare battery when taking images on important occasions.
• Do not use the battery at ambient temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above 40°C
(104°F).
• Charge the battery indoors with an ambient temperature of 5°C to 35°C (41°F to
95°F) before use.
• When charging the battery inserted into the COOLPIX S800c using the Charging
AC Adapter or a computer, the charge capacity may decrease at ambient
temperatures 45°C to 60°C (113°F to 140°F).
• The battery is not charged at battery temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above
60°C (140°F).
• Note that the battery may become hot during use; wait for the battery to cool
before charging. Failure to observe these precautions could damage the
battery, impair its performance, or prevent it from charging normally.
• On cold days, the capacity of batteries tends to decrease. If an exhausted battery
is used at a low temperature, the camera may not turn on. Be sure that the
battery is fully charged before heading outside to take images in cold weather.
Keep spare batteries in a warm place and exchange as necessary. Once warmed,
a cold battery may recover some of its charge.
• Dirt on the battery terminals can prevent the camera from functioning. Should
the battery terminals become dirty, wipe them off with a clean, dry cloth before
use.
Maximizing Camera Life and Performance
• If the battery will not be used for some time, insert it in the camera and
completely exhaust it before removing it for storage. The battery should be
stored in a cool location with an ambient temperature of 15°C to 25°C (59°F to
77°F). Do not store the battery in hot or extremely cold locations.
• Always remove the battery from the camera or optional battery charger when it
is not being used. When inserted, minute amounts of current are drawn from
the battery even when not in use. This may result in excessive draining of the
battery and complete loss of function. Turning the camera on or off while the
battery is exhausted can result in reduced battery life.
• Recharge the battery at least once every 6 months and completely exhaust it
before returning it to storage.
• After removing the battery from the camera or optional battery charger, replace
the included terminal cover and store it in a cool place.
• A marked drop in the time a fully-charged battery retains its charge, when used
at room temperature, indicates that the battery needs to be replaced. Purchase
a new EN-EL12 battery.
• Replace the battery when it no longer holds a charge. Used batteries are a
valuable resource. Please recycle used batteries in accordance with local
regulations.
Charging AC Adapter
Technical Notes and Index
Be sure to read and follow the warnings in “For Your Safety” (Avi–viii) before use.
• The Charging AC Adapter EH-69P is for use only with compatible devices. Do
not use with another make or model of device.
• The EH-69P is compatible with AC 100 V–240 V, 50/60 Hz electrical outlets.

necessary. For more information about plug adapters, consult your travel
agency.
• Do not, under any circumstances, use another make or model of AC adapter
other than Charging AC Adapter EH-69P or USB-AC adapter. Failure to observe
this precaution could result in overheating or in damage to the camera.
Memory Cards
• Use only Secure Digital memory cards. See “Approved Memory Cards” (F19)
for more information about memory cards.
• Be sure to follow the precautions described in the documentation included
with the memory card.
• Do not put labels or stickers on memory cards.
F4
Maximizing Camera Life and Performance
• The first time you insert a memory card that has been used in another device
into this camera, be sure to format it with this camera. We recommend
formatting new memory cards with this camera before using them with this
camera.
• Note that formatting permanently deletes all images and other data on the
memory card. Be sure to make copies of any images you wish to keep before
formatting the memory card.
• Do not perform the following during formatting, while data is being written to
or deleted from the memory card, or during data transfer to a computer. Failure
to observe this precaution could result in the loss of data or in damage to the
camera or memory card:
- Open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover to remove/insert the
battery or memory card.
- Turn off the camera.
- Disconnect the AC adapter.
• Do not format the memory card using a computer.

Body
Avoid touching glass parts with your fingers. Remove dust or lint with a blower
(typically a small device with a rubber bulb attached to one end that is
pumped to produce a stream of air out the other end). To remove fingerprints
or other stains that cannot be removed with a blower, wipe the lens with a soft
cloth, using a spiral motion that starts at the center of the lens and working
toward the edges. If this fails, clean the lens using a cloth lightly dampened
with commercial lens cleaner.
Remove dust or lint with a blower. To remove fingerprints and other stains,
clean the monitor with a soft, dry cloth, being careful not to apply pressure.
Wiping with too much force or with a hard cloth may damage the monitor or
cause it to malfunction.
Use a blower to remove dust, dirt or sand, then wipe gently with a soft, dry
cloth. After using the camera at the beach or other sandy or dusty
environment, wipe off any sand, dust, or salt with a dry cloth lightly dampened
with fresh water and dry thoroughly. Note that foreign matter inside the
camera could cause damage not covered by the warranty.
